DESERT ADVENTURES RANCH

IMAGINE…..DINING ON THE SAN ANDREAS FAULT!

Hidden amidst the steep walled canyons of the infamous San Andreas Fault, sits a unique and beautiful private desert paradise…DESERT ADVENTURES' , just 15-20 minutes away, with no sound or time limitations, and a world away from the golf greens and gardens of your luxury resort, offering the pefect location for your private group party.

As darkness overtakes us, the clear desert sky comes alive with brilliant stars twinkling in the Heavens above. As you round the bend, the swaying palms of a natural palm oasis are highlighted against the sunset.  Slowly you meander down the road and turn into a beautiful canyon where the soft glow of colored lights on the fault line welcomes you to enter the strange and eerie world of the San Andreas Fault!  Sounds of music fill the air as you step into another time and place, where nature is the star.   This evening you will enjoy wonderful food cooked in the open desert, play games, relax by a roaring campfire, cook a marshmallow, and just enjoy a unique environment you’ve probably never experienced before!

 

SUNSET SUPPERS

ON THE SAN ANDREAS FAULT
